Question

A hot tub holds 350.0 liters of water.

How much energy, in kilocalories (kcal), would be required to raise the temperature of the water in the tub from 25.00 °C to 38.50 °C?

Assume the density of water is 1.000 g/ml.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given : Volume of water = 350.0 L

Density of water = 1.000 g/mL = 1.000 Kg/L               (since 1 Kg/L = 1 g/mL because 1 Kg = 1000 g and 1 L = 1000 mL)

Initial temperature of water = 25.00 oC

And final temperature of water = 38.50 oC
